Review:
Ripe and spicy with a touch of dried pear alongside the fresh peach, this dry riesling makes a serious statement. Lots of underplayed power here, the acidity quite supple at the long spicy finish that’s well supported by positive tannins. Drink or hold.

Review:
An effusive white, filled with Asian spice details and plush notes of ripe pear and nectarine. Open-textured and beautifully crafted, with a rich tapestry of flavors and aromas. Polished and impressive on the finish, with an echoing aftertaste of cream and anise. Riesling. Drink now through 2028. 75 cases imported.

Review:
"Moosbrugger's Riesling 2017 Zöbing Ried Heiligenstein "1ÖTW" has an intense yellow-golden color and opens with a deep and intense, elegant bouquet with very ripe and concentrated but precise and spicy-scented fruit aromas. Full-bodied and round on the palate, this elegant, complex and persistent Heiligenstein reveals intense and balanced fruit with lingering crystalline acidity and stimulating salinity. Lovely mineral in the finish. This is a very elegant and refined, terroir-driven Heiligenstein with remarkably purity and length. Great style. Tasted at Schloss Gobelsburg/Kamptal, September 2018. Drink 2018-2034."

Review:
The 2016 Ried Heiligenstein 1ÖTW opens with a very clear, pure and classic yet intense bouquet of lemon zest, confit and the flinty flavors of crushed rocks. On the palate, this is a complex, dense, piquant, finessed and mineral dry Riesling with the lingering salinity, fine grip and tension of the fabulous Heiligenstein terroir. This is another Riesling classic from the region that is lean and fresh and super stimulating. Very fine tannins here. Tasted as a sample in June/July 2017 at the domaine. Sourced from 20- to 35-year-old vines. Drink 2018-2036.

Review:
This is still quite yeasty, but in a rather attractive way. Behind that yeasty creaminess, which will fade somewhat with time, is a great wine that is deep, firm and complex. The finish expands like a concertina until the minerality envelops you. Drink now.
